greetings to all

Actually I want to run PHP code that processes the data in the database. Is there any software (other than the browser) that can do this, well, like cron when importing database in the background

    • brilliant! thanks - frank

    Some hosting providers allow you to customize the job for CRON. Thus, you can run an arbitrary php script which will do the necessary work. Ask about hosting support. If this hosting does not support this function - change the hosting.

    the option of running the script through the browser is possible, but in this case, as a rule, there is a limit on the maximum execution time of the script. so the script may simply not modify and spoil the data in the database. there is no such limitation on taxi crowns, or the CRON task time is significantly more (for example, 30 seconds for a script, 1 hour for a CRON task). therefore, I highly recommend to ask about the assignment of CRON tasks to the hosting support service.

    • @ivan_pizhenko, I do not like to give advice by advising me (some perceive it inadequately), but the script time can be increased to any value by a command. you can set an infinite hosting account - and did. took advantage of where there is support for the krone, and on the basis of this we will create the next topic. thanks - frank

    If you run the script on the crown, you usually need the /usr/bin/php -q /абсолютный/путь/к/вашему/скрипту/script.php path /usr/bin/php -q /абсолютный/путь/к/вашему/скрипту/script.php script / script /usr/bin/php -q /абсолютный/путь/к/вашему/скрипту/script.php But the path to php may be different, depending on some parameters.

    Alternatively, you can run wget-ohm, that is, wget -O - -q -t 1 http://www.domain.com/path/script.php "-O -" key sets the output to the console (instead of saving to the file ), "-q" does it "silently" (without displaying on the screen), and "-t 1" indicates to make only one connection attempt. Simply put, instead of downloading, we get exactly a single “script call” at a given address.

    • thanks, I already understand part of using crown - frank
